‘No Alarm Bells’ in Stock Market: Brown

Sector rotation in the stock market appears healthy, even if it means a modest pullback, Josh Brown of Fusion Analytics says.

Sector rotation in the stock market appears healthy, even if it meant a modest pullback in the S&P 500, Josh Brown of Fusion Analytics said Monday on CNBC.

"The market deserves the benefit of the doubt," he said. "The action that we're seeing today is exactly what you want if you want to be constructive for the remainder of 2013. There's absolutely no reason anyone should be rooting for a breakout to new highs today, tomorrow, the next day. Let things settle down a bit. We've gotten off to way too hot a start."

On "Fast Money," Brown argued that shifts in the market were a good thing.

"However, keep in mind all of the rotation we're seeing underneath the surface is very positive, and so far, there are no alarm bells," he said.

Joe Terranova of Virtus Investment Partners said that he was looking forward to the labor report on Friday, which he expected to be disappointing.

"I am taking some of the length that I have in American Express, in Corning and in Morgan Stanley, which I've been riding higher, and I am reducing that today on a disappointing labor report on Friday," he added.
